There is no doubt that the Tory gov
eminent acted with much cunning in
causing Parliament to be prOrogued
after the completion of the Irish legis-
latiOn. The difficulty with the Irish
patriot cause just now is the lack of adj
vertisement of its grievances in the alb
sence of the possibility Of immediate
remedy through discussion in Parlia-
ment. Meanwhile all that can be done
is affected by such arguments as were
contained in Mr.. Gladstone's letters to
to the Glasgow Liberals. Common
sense and common justice prove his
declaration that the governments ap-

Mrs. Cleveland is the wife of the
President of the United States, and
the papers throughout the country have
for months, irrespective of party, been
sounding her praise as being an accom-
plished, cultured lady, of pleasing ad-
dress, wOmanly woman and a model
wife. She owes certain duties towards
society, but above all as a true wife,
and as woman with a woman's heart,
which would mean true and LOYAL
towards the man she swore to honor
when she assumed the marriage vows.
If she really and wilfully refused to
treat Mr.. Foraker with the same
amount of respect shown other guests,
she done just what any other woman
who loves and respects her husband
more than she does the shrine of fash
ionable society would have done. In
late speech Foraker hurled vile and
shameful epethets at the President, fit

A Plea for Reason.

Capt. George w. Bell, of Iowa, spoke
to good audience at the court house
last night. He is a polished speaker,
and his address had no bold assertions
OF the politician, or noise and folly of
the agitatOr. The discourse was a
manly appeal to reason, and it merits
cool consideration and fine criticism.
While there was much in the speech
with which we do not agree. we confess
that he discussed all questions ably,
fairly and elOquently.
His extensive travel and fine de-
scriptive powers, make him a most
intensely interesting speaker on the
land question. He has examined the
condition of the tenantry of the United
Kingdom, written on the questions, and
mingled in the politics of foreign
nations.
Full half of his speech was directed
to the tariff question, and he fully sus-
tanned the reputation he has made in
the west on that question.
We understand Capt. Bell is very
radical in other questions, and we don't
know how far we could go with him,
but on the tariff question we consider
his head eminently level. lie spoke
upon this question by request.
We understand he advocates govern
ment ownership of the railroads, govern
ment issuing of the money and of tax
ing speculative values out of land. that
every family might have a home if it
wanted it. and without the home being
loaded down with mortgages.
Capt. Bell surely has ability and a
vast amount of learning, and whatever
question he may advocate, is sure to be
made respectable and to have a hear
ing.

thus demonstrating that Ohio still leads

Thu RAVAGES or HOPLI
IMPORTANT INVESTIGATIONS
MADE BY THE DEPARTMENT
or Agriculture Which Will be
Of a Great Benefit TO Hop
Growers.

WASHINGTON, June 15.-The De.
pertinent of Agriculture has made
public the result of sn exhaustive
personal investigation into the
habits Of the phorodon humuli, or
hop louise. His discoveries are ex-
ptcted to prove of great value to hop
growers, ss he has succeeded in learr
ing the habitation OF this plsnt pest
during the winter months and acing
it through the various stag Of insect
life. Before the professors investipa-
ton it was not known how or where
the insects survived the winter. AS
result of his inquiries the professor
has satisfied himself that the eggs laid
by the female at the close of the
summer are deposited in plum trees,
where the insect matches in the spring
and resides until the third generation.
This third brood, unlike its predeces.
sors, is winged, and Immediately after
development abandons the plum tree
and attacks the hop vine. In the
autumn a counter migration from
the hop vine to the plum
tree occurs, the winter eggs
are deposited aid the cycle of life goes
on in the same fashion. It's notable
fact that in regions where the cnltiva-
ton Of hop vines is a new industry,
growers have had comp'ets immunity
for a while from this pest. Ia Cali
fornia today they are not troubled
by it. The professor believes that the
phorodon humuli has been brought to
this country from Europe on plum
stock, and there Is reason to believe
that the pbylloxers, The dreaded grape
pest, was carried from this country to
Europe on grape vine cuttings; there
fore California hop growers are warned
to beware OF importing plum stock
from Eastern hop regions. These dis
coverieJ render it possible to check
the ravsges of the hop louise, either by
the use of insecticides in the spring
time before the insect has reached the
winged state, or by the destruction OF
the sheltering plum trees. The expert
ments will be- continued with view
to protecting the bop vines after they
have become infested with lice.

on the application of John @. Robic-
son, as owner 10 relocate BacCa claim
No. 8, in the Territory of New Mexico,
has reversed the decision of Acting
Commissioner Harrison, Of March II,
1856, re- scting the location because OF
the mineral character of the land, and
authorizing relocation. He holds,
however, that under the principles
laid down in the Gilpin decision made
by Commissioner Williamson, which,
he sffirms, the claimant is entitled to
the location of the land originally
made in June, 1868, as amended in
1866, for the reason that at that date it
had been decided to be non-min eral
in character, and the subst quent dis.
covery Of mineral, he holds, cannot
defeat the title to such land. The Sec
rotary also Say that "If the govern.
ment has disposed Of any part OF the
lands embraced in said location, by
reason of the action OF the General
Land Office, claimants, perhaps, might,
In that event, upon a proper epplica-
ton made, be allowed to select and

acres,
